Make a Guitar
with Roy Courtnall Summerfield
To make a guitar, the first things you need are a Guitar Plan to work from, and a good Instructional Book to guide you step-by-step through the process. You find both these offered here.

He offers a range of products to help the new and experienced guitar and violin maker, as well as some items of interest to all musical instrument makers; - Full-size plans and working drawings, including blueprints of guitars made by some of the most famous guitar makers of all time. Roy's published books include: Making Master Guitars, which is a complete reference for the guitar maker, and The Art of Violin Making, which he co-wrote with Chris Johnson, and which has a Foreword written by the late Yehudi Menuhin.
